Página 219 - He writes a letter, (1) presents his compliments, (2) presents his cheque, (3) presents himself. But modesty is a virtue unknown in Yankeedom. Behold another sample of it. There are loud cries of " Roberts, Roberts ! " This is the famous Colonel Roberts, once the head of a Fenian split of a split.
